Remember when David West was praised for taking a big pay cut to join a championship contender?
Fans spent days talking endlessly about the value of winning for a veteran who's never been a part of the NBA Finals. Well the numbers are out via Hoops Rumors, and it turns out West was actually No. 3 in terms of players who took the biggest pay cut this off-season.
Turns out Amar'e Stoudemire took the biggest pay cut of the NBA off season to join the Miami Heat. The six-time NBA All-Star will make nearly $20 MILLION less next season after signing with the Heat for the veteran’s minimum.
